4.0 excellent | Comatorium. | May 11th 15 | Awh man, the wait for this has been long and arduous but it was worth it. A friend of mine once described Silverstein as the "power metal of metalcore." And honestly, he's not too far from the truth. The band has been penning razor sharp heavy verses that give way to massive and soaring arena rock choruses for years now, well before they had the fanbase to fill out their live shows and actually create that anthemic atmosphere their polished brand of metal brings to the table. I Am Alive In Everything I Touch is Silverstein's sound streamlined to a T with some new dynamics mixed in here and there that were hinted at on their last album. The end result is incredibly gratifying, and I feel that other than the stellar This is How the Wind Shifts that this is the most inspired and sharp the band has sounded since Shipwreck in the Sand, and am loving the intensity of these songs. The singles stand as highlights along with the "Toronto' songs that bookend the album. They slow it down for a beat on tracks like "Late on 6th" and crank the heaviness on tracks like "Heaven, Hell, and Purgatory" and "In the Dark." All in all, the rating is gonna probably fluctuate, but I know I'm digging it.

2.5 average | charlie15 | May 13th 15 | This is a huge disappointment for me. The entire album feels uninspired and rushed. Poor compared to This is How the Wind Shifts

4.5 superb | Snide | October 21st 16 | Toronto (Unabridged) is hands down the best song this band has ever done.

4.0 excellent | Hunter1997 | November 20th 15 | By mistake I gave the album a 3.5 but I decided to correct the score because I truly enjoyed this album, every song is solid and therefore it deserves a higher score. thank you

4.0 excellent | ryansand3182 | November 18th 15 | It took me a few listens to really appreciate this album. But it was totally worth it. Great album

3.0 good | SparkToBelieve | July 10th 15 | ugh... Where to begin? The second half of the album blows. The first half is extremely good but some elements still seem rushed. Not a bad album at all but to be followed by "This Is How The Wind Shift" is a huge let down to anyone who was attached to that album like I was.

4.0 excellent | Jared Floryan | May 25th 15 | Even though there are a few signs that point to formulaic in regards to post-hardcore band Silverstein's newest studio album, many of I Am Alive in Everything I Touch's songs are well-composed enough to overlook how bland bits and pieces of this end up sounding in the long run. Seven full-length recordings and they're still easily fixing what was broken during those initial years. "Desert Nights" is an entertaining jam, and "Late on 6th" is undoubtedly one of the best tracks here.

0.0 | CK | May 21st 15 | So this is going to be insanely overrated just like the previous record, I see?

4.0 excellent | zmol | May 14th 15 | Silverstein don't seem to be slowing down. Perhaps not as consistent as TIHTWS, but continuing a similar trend in quality music. I agree with the idea that the songs are more balanced and would argue the more 'punk/hardcore' songs are a bit subpar compared to their usual self but, man, late on 6th, desert nights, and Toronto are amazing.

3.5 great | kizmang | May 11th 15 | Everything outstanding on Silverstein's previous releases mashed into one absolutely killer masterpiece, and they still manage to implement their own new/modern touch into these songs. These dudes blow me away with each release. They're showing no signs of backing down or losing inspiration which is extremely prominent on this album. Amazing work guys, I'm speechless. Favourite tracks on first listen (although they are all excellent): Late on 6th, Buried at Sea, Milestone, Je Me Souviens and Heaven, Hell and Purgatory.

0.0 | tresm87 | May 11th 15 | While it's your awesome same old silverstein album, it is probably their least inspired one yet. Still some amazing tracks on it though.
